Join us as we delve into the powerful world of vulnerability and storytelling with a parent who faced the challenge of teen substance abuse.
When faced with the difficult journey of her child's addiction, she discovered the transformative power of sharing her story, but will she find the strength to overcome the obstacles ahead?
My special guest is Marsha Vanwynsberghe
Marsha Vanwynsberghe's journey is a powerful testament to the resilience and courage required when facing the challenges of teen substance abuse. Her story highlights the profound impact of vulnerability and storytelling in navigating through daunting circumstances.
Marsha's candid account lays bare the isolation and stigma often associated with such experiences, emphasizing the vital role of empathy and understanding within a community. Her realization that she wasn't alone in her struggles, upon discovering a supportive network of 100,000 parents in a Facebook group, ignited a passion to advocate for change and offer solace to others in similar situations.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
